DNR confirms coyote sightings in Milwaukee's Lake Park

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- More coyotes have been reported on Milwaukee's east side near Lake Park.

The DNR confirms the sightings and says they're all over Milwaukee County.

"We've got a lot of food and habitat for them," said Diane Robinson, Milwaukee County Urban Wildlife Biologist. "Packs are usually 3-6 individuals. It's hard to know if these animals are part of a pack."

They say people who see coyotes should make as much noise and movement as possible to scare them away.
